Phillies Place Third Baseman Alec Bohm on Injured List with Fractured Rib, Recall Weston Wilson

News summary

Philadelphia Phillies third baseman Alec Bohm has been placed on the 10-day injured list due to a fractured left rib sustained when he was hit by a 92-mph pitch from Yu Darvish on July 12. Bohm initially missed the final game before the All-Star break and returned to play briefly before reporting ongoing discomfort, leading to medical imaging that confirmed the fracture. To fill Bohm's roster spot, the Phillies recalled utility player Weston Wilson from Triple-A Lehigh Valley, who will provide additional flexibility at third base alongside Otto Kemp and Edmundo Sosa. Manager Rob Thomson indicated that third base playing time will be shared among Kemp, Sosa, Bryson Stott, and Wilson while Bohm recovers. The team has adjusted its lineup accordingly, with Kemp temporarily moving to third base and Wilson potentially contributing in left field or other positions. Bohm had been hitting .278 with eight home runs and 42 RBIs in 92 games this season before the injury.
